Ideas for family days out to make half term a breeze

Here at Ticketmaster, our Minimasters are always on the lookout for the best events that are guaranteed to please the whole family.

And with half term just around the corner, they’ve rounded up a whole host of shows that can keep them (and you!) busy over the school break.

From awesome theatre and spectacular sports, to festivals and special offers, the Minimaster guide is now organised especially with half term in mind, so you can find the perfect treat for the whole family.

Plus, we also look ahead at some super cool activities coming up later this year that are already on sale – so you can get prepped for summer and beyond.

Here we round up five of our Minis’ top picks to give you a taster.
